The Elevator To The Moon

“A space elevator capable of taking robots and humans back to the surface of the moon can be built today, a California firm has claimed. The radical Liftport system would allow cheap and simple access to the lunar surface via a ‘ribbon’ cable. Eventually it is hoped a ‘space elevator’ could even take people from earth directly to the lunar surface.”— Naturally, they are on Kickstarter. Whatever, it is too early in the week to get worked up about this.
